ZAPFIC returns! More zap and more fic *
*just without the hassle of zappl!
What is #zapfic? Well I was the first to use the hashtag, so I guess I invented it, and I get to decide what it means.
# zapfic is avery short story written in less than 240 characters*.
Use a word/character counter like this free one (https://wordcounter.net/) to check your character count!
*Why 240 characters? Well originally it was posted to the steemit blockchain using the app “zappl”, but that app has been on an extended holiday, and we can't hang around for ever... so now no more hassle with zappl! You can post your #zapfic however you want!
Last week’s entries!
Thank you to everyone who participated! There were 4 entries. I couldn't choose between them so everyone gets a Steen basic income share this week (transfer will be done tomorrow)

Yay thank you :) I can see this being a great way to spend a few minutes being creative, I sometime get put off by the contests that require long pieces of fiction.
